The Algar Flynn Oyamada reaction is a chemical reaction whereby a chalconoid chalcone undergoes an redox oxidative cyclization to form a flavonol . ref Algar, J. Flynn, J. P. Proc. Roy. Irish Acad. 1934 , 42B , 1. ref ref Oyamada, B. J. Chem. Soc. Japan 1934 , 55 , 1256. ref File Algar Flynn Oyamada Overview.svg center 700px The Algar Flynn Oyamada reaction Reaction mechanism There are several possible mechanisms to explain this reaction, however, these reaction mechanisms have not been elucidated. What is known is that a two stage mechanism exists. First, dihydroflavonol is formed, which then subsequently oxidized to form Flavonol . One point we should notice is that those mechanisms which have a epoxide to be an intermediate are excluded,which should be obtained by the oxidation of the double bond with hydrogen peroxide in Prileschajew reaction . ref T. R. Gormley, W. I. O Sullivan Flavanoid epoxides XIII Acid and base catalysed reactions of 2 tosyloxychalcone epoxides. Mechanism of the algar flynn oyamada reaction , in Tetrahedron 1973 , 29 , 369 373. ref Gormley et al. have shown that the reaction does not proceed through an epoxide. ref T. R. Gormley, et al. Tetrahedron journal Tetrahedron 1973 , 29 , 369. ref . The probable mechanisms are thus two possibilities The attack of nucleophiles by Base phenolates educated at the double bond under direct attack on the hydrogen peroxide. Nucleophiles attack phenolates under the formation of a enolate , which then attacks on hydrogen peroxide.
